Can you shoot a 9mm in a 380?

A pistol chambered for .380 ACP (also known as 9x17) can fire that cartridge and only that cartridge. You cannot shoot 9mm Parabellum (9x19) or any other 9mm cartridge in it.


Can you shoot 40 caliber ammunition out of a 10mm pistol?

No. The length of the 10mm cartridge is necessary to achieve the proper headspace in a 10mm pistol. While a .40 cartridge would probably chamber, firing this round in a 10mm pistol is extremely dangerous, and can lead to damage to the weapon, as well as injury to the operator.


Can you shoot 45 auto and 45 ACP?

ACP means Automatic Colt Pistol. .45 ACP and .45 Auto are the same cartridge. .45 Colt and .45 Auto Rim are a revolver cartridge. .45 GAP (Glock Auto Pistol) is a shorter round than the ACP, and does not interchange with it.

No it is dangerous to attempt a 9mm is a bigger bullet. More specifically, 9mm Luger is a longer cartridge that .380 ACP.


Can you shoot a 9mm out of a 380?

The .380 ACP is a 9mm cartridge - 9x17mm. That is the ONLY cartridge which can be fired from a .380 pistol, and the 9x18mm Makarov, 9x19mm Parabellum/Luger, 9x21, 9x23, 9x25, etc. cartridges are NOT compatible. The Makarov cartridge actually uses a 9.3mm projectile, which is too large for the .380, and the 9x19 cartridge uses too long a case, meaning you won't get proper headspacing in the chamber, and it's designed for a locked breech pistol, generating too much pressure to be safely used in an unlocked breech pistol such as a .380. Do not attempt to use any ammunition other than what your firearm is intended to shoot.


Can you shoot 380 ACP and 9x18 with the same gun?

NO. The .380 ACP is a 9 x 17 cartridge. The 9x18, also known as the 9mm Makarov, is not truly a 9mm cartridge- it is 9.27mm. The cartridge is too long, too fat, and too powerful to be shot in a .380 ACP pistol.

Can you use colt 45 and colt 45 long in the same pistol?

Actually, the cartridges are .45 ACP (automatic Colt Pistol) and .45 Colt (the cowboy era revolver cartridge. There is not really a Colt 45 Long. Can a revolver shoot both? Some can- they are chambered for the Colt .45 -but to shoot .45 ACP they need a "half moon clip"- a strip of metal that holds 3 of the shorter .45 ACP cartridges. 2 of those fill a 6 shot revolver. The PISTOL (not revolver) that shoots the .45 ACP cannot shoot the .45 Colt- no groove for the extractor to pull a fired cartridge out of the chamber, and it is too long.
